Quilty Treat.






















Yesterday was our group's big day out - a bus trip to visit "A Child's Christmas."












It was the Auckland Patchwork & Quilters Guild - Calico Christmas 2008 - Annual Exhibition.

Over the next few posts I will show you a sample of the Eye Candy on display and the quilts that took my fancy, ( some to keep as a starting point for future projects perhaps. ) To fit the theme for this year there was a display of old toys, so I'll show you that too.

  7. I love the first quilt. I am guessing it did not win a prize, but it should have, it is beautiful.
    Loved seeing the 'old' toys- some look young to me!! LOL.
